Notas do Editor
- 2017 was a year of almost unimaginable upheaval. People in multiple countries rejected their government’s leaders or policies, demonstrating their dissatisfaction and distrust by electing reform or outsider candidates, voting to leave trading blocs, or refusing to support treaties negotiated by their governments. Business was rocked by corporate scandals that saw executives investigated and even charged with criminal acts. The mainstream media lost audience as people turned to social media and search for information, advertising results were questioned, and the specter of fake news left the public wondering what was true anymore. The findings of the 2017 Trust Barometer provide a roadmap for understanding the forces shaping these movements and events, the shifts in influence and power as the tide of populist action sweeps across many western-style democracies around the world. Very importantly, too, the Trust Barometer provides important insights for organizations seeking to understand and operate in markets both in and outside their continental borders.
- Edelman has been studying trust for 17 years, and we are now in our 6th year of surveying an expanded sample across the general online population. This year, we spoke to more than 33,000 respondents in 28 markets. In each country, the sample is nationally-representative, but do keep in mind that this is an online survey, so we can only be representative of the general online population, which in some markets will not represent the full population, especially in developing markets where the online population can be much smaller and the data can skew to those who have the relative affluence to secure online access. Each year, we also oversample the Informed Public, a segment of the population that is higher-income, college-educated and highly-informed on business and public policy matters. This year, that represents about 13% of the global sample, and you'll see some slides where we compare that informed public against the mass population.
- Last year’s shift in influence was about an inversion of the traditional pyramid of influence, and a separation of influence and authority. Gone are the days of the traditional “pyramid of influence,” in which both authority and influence were concentrated in the hands of a small number of elite opinion-shapers. This model was predicated on the belief that the informed public had access to superior information, their interests were interconnected with those of the mass population and that becoming ‘an elite’ was open to all of those who work hard. But today, due primarily to the democratization of information, we have seen the pyramid turned upside down. Influence now rests among the mass population, who talk to each other on social media or use search to access information, and no longer need to rely on the more “informed” population for ideas. Influence is no longer automatically granted to those in authority. And, as we first saw in 2016 , the Mass Population’s view of the world—at a trust level of just 48—is vastly different from that of the top 15% who had a trust level of 60 in 2016.
- In 2016, the barometer focused on the widening gap between the informed public and mass population segments. Unfortunately, instead of solving the problem, we have allowed this gap to grow even bigger. Trust inequality grew by 3pts over 5 years from 2012-2016. In 2017, it widened another 3 points, to where we now have a 15-point gap in the trust levels of the informed public and the mass population. In many markets, that inequality is even greater. Leading the inequality scoreboard are the U.S. at 21 pts, the U.K. at 19 pts, and France at 18 pts.
- We now live in a world where more than one-third of the countries are trusters among the informed public, while the mass population distrusts their institutions in 20 of 28 counties, and has trust in only 3 of them This glaring inequality is a situation that is not sustainable.
- In 2017, the mass population has used its broad-reaching influence to reassert its authority, rejecting both the influence and authority of the establishment. This has left the informed public --those who once were at the top of the triangle--without either influence or authority, and scratching their heads wondering what happened to them. The details of this year’s Trust Barometer provide some answers as to what is happening.
- First, trust in institutions has declined where it has reached crisis levels. In today’s atmosphere of distrust, the unvirtuous, self-reinforcing cycle of societal fears interacting with a system that is highly suspect is reinforced and amplified by the radical changes in our media ecosystem, the long-term impact of which are as yet little-understood.
- Each year we ask respondents to tell us how much they trust each of 4 institutions—business, government, NGOs and the media – to do what is right.
- This year, we saw, for the first time ever, declines in all four institutions. This was the year that trust in media fell apart, plunging 5 points to a level nearly as low as government. Two of the four institutions are now distrusted, media and government. NGOs, which long held a substantial lead as the most trusted institution, has seen that lead erode over the years, to where it is now barely more trusted than business. Business is just above the 50% mark which marks the dividing line between trust and distrust.
- Media is an all-time low both globally and in 17 of the 28 countries we surveyed. It is now distrusted in 82% of countries with steep declines both globally and in almost every country. We believe this shift may be related to the fact that many people believe the media is part of the established elite. More about this in a moment.
- Government trust has been extremely low for several years and this year continues to evaporate further. Half the countries saw fresh declines with steep decreases in Mexico, South Korea, Australia, Canada and Russia. It is distrusted as an institution in 3 out of 4 countries.
- NGOs declined in 21 of 28 countries, eroding the strong lead it once had as the number one most-trusted institution. In 11 countries it is now less trusted than business, which is shocking considering its traditional role as the institution that helps promote and deliver benefits to society. There’s a prevailing feeling of that NGOs just aren’t getting things done. Their missions and purpose are in the right place, but a lack of action may be the cause for the decrease in trust.
- While trust in media and in government are already at crisis levels, business at 52% trust globally is still above the line of distrust—but just barely. In 2017, business trust declined in 18 countries, notably in Argentina, Canada, Colombia and Mexico. Today, business is distrusted in 13 countries and is in neutral territory (which is not the same as trusted) in 7 countries.
- CEO credibility declined both globally, and in every single country we surveyed. Only Mexico and India find CEOs to be credible. In the vast majority of countries, CEOs are not credible. In Japan, France, Poland, and S. Korea, less than 1 in 4 find CEOs to be credible.
- UN is in trusted or neutral trust territory in 22/28 countries surveyed Most trusted among informed publics (27/28 countries) EU distrusted in all 11 EU countries Trusted or neutral among informed publics in 8/11 EU countries IMF distrusted in 17/28 countries surveyed Trusted or neutral among informed publics in 21/28 countries surveyed
- In the U.S., the election-driven sense of increased trust and optimism was short-lived. If we compare the trust scores for those respondents who answered the survey before the election, to those who answered after the election, you see a marked decrease in trust levels for 3 of the 4 institutions. Fast forward to several weeks later, and trust levels have plunged to where all 4 of our institutions are now distrusted.
- This year’s barometer showed institutions experiencing lower levels of trust. The yellow portion of the slide refers to the questions we asked respondents to help understand why their trust was low – why they no longer believe that the system is working. **** Questions included: Do you feel the system is working fairly? The answer? No. The majority of people believe that the system is biased in favor of the elites, who are enjoying more benefits than everyone else. They are feeling left behind and they’re not happy about it. Do people have hope that their hard work will be rewarded, providing hope that your children will have a better future of that the country is moving in the right direction? Again, the answer is no. Do they have confidence in their current leaders? No. Do they want change, a better deal? Yes.
- The results were a bit stunning. The takeaway: We’re living in a period where the general sense is that the system isn’t working. Globally, the majority of respondents - 53% - believe that the system is failing them, that it is not fair, that it does not offer reasons for hope or confidence, and they want change. Only 15% believe the system is working, and approximately one in three are uncertain. These 32% who are doubters can make the difference between a complete collapse, or they can become allies in restoring faith where it has been lost.
- One of the most surprising findings is that the problem is now transversal—not just a mass vs. elites problem. Even among those who are higher-income, well-educated and well-informed, approximately half believe that the system is not working. The takeaway: In the financial services sector, even your HNW individuals – many of whom are on the corporate/institutional side – have the same concerns.
- Many companies might be tempted to run for cover—but people continue to ask business to play a leading role in not only delivering profits, but also contributing to improving the economic and social conditions in the community in which it operates.
- Trust in FS is increasing faster than any other of the sector’s we survey in the trust barometer. It’s up 11 percentage points since 2012 (43%) and up 3 percentage points since 2016 (51% -> 54%) It’s critical to understand, however, that since the global financial crisis, trust in financial services has had no where to go but up.
- It’s not surprising, then, that we see financial services as the least trusted sector that we survey. Amidst this sea of regulatory uncertainty, it is incumbent for business to undertake trust-building behaviors (which we’ll talk about soon) so the trajectory doesn’t stop
- Key factors within the top 5 financial centers Germany Very little equity culture; anything riskier than a low-yield savings account is viewed as unwise Deutsche Bank – share price hammered in Sept. 2016 surrounding fears that it didn’t have funds to cover mounting legal costs. Bank and Germany govt. both denied that bailout in cards. UK Uncertainty surrounding Brexit – potential for FS jobs out of London. UBS and HSBC both said they will move roughly 1K jobs from London to other European city Regulation delays –MiFID II (Creation of single market for investment services and activities) until 1/2018, Basel III (global regulatory framework on bank capital adequacy, stress testing and market liquidity risk) until 4/2019 Hong Kong Financial services comprises 17.6% of the GDP in HK With regulation around capital and liquidity still pending, the question this market is asking is: Will competitiveness be affected if regulatory bodies tighten control of financial markets? United States US has taken actionable steps to improve lives; (CFPB); (legal action against corruption/bad practices); (fun, new easy-to-use products) Singapore Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) has committed $225 million to establish the country as a “regulatory sandbox” for fintech companies As the country moves toward an increasingly e-payments focused society, MAS looks to streamline existing regulatory framework across in various payments/remittance regulations.
- Here, we see the growing gap between the informed public and general population in business and the financial services sector. Most startling is the five-point gap in 2016 has grown by three in 2017 to 8 points. This only reinforces that financial services companies work to build trust and close this gap.
- Here’s a snapshot of trust in FS generally and how it compares to the FS subsectors we survey. Notable here is that we don’t see any particular industry gaining ground YOY (and, in fact, saw trust erode 4 points from 2016 2017 in the mobile wallet/e-payments space). A 2016 study by Chadwick Martin Bailey, a Boston-based consulting shop, may explain this falling trend. The most cited concerns over mobile wallets were identify theft, fees and privacy. We go into this in a bit more detail later, but as the pace of innovation grows, the more the general public seems to be concerned and fearful of it.
- While the system continues to recover, it’s obvious that the general population hasn’t reached a consensus on reforms increasing the financial services system’s stability. More than half of our respondents said they don’t agree financial market reforms have increased economic stability In fact, among those folks who think the “system is broken,” calls for reform are even greater, as 63% of them said the same. When we look at this question through the lens of larger financial centers around the world, this becomes more clear. In the UK, we continue to see the uncertainty around Brexit. Concerning here is the potential move of financial services companies out of the city, as well as the UK’s potential divergence from the single market. In the US, we see the potential clawbacks of the tenets of Dodd-Frank, including the Volcker rule and the powers and processes of bodies such as the FSOC and the CFPB
- The failure of FS companies to act is going to affect their bottom line. In this climate, there is broad support for policies that are not exactly business-friendly for financial services companies. Nearly 1 in 2 are against free trade agreements Trump abandons 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership, ending an era of multinational trade agreements. Signals his promise to follow through on “America First” approach. 69% believe we need to prioritize the interests of our country 72% believe that government should be doing more to protect jobs—even if it means that these policies result in slower economic growth. This is where consequences occur. Financial services companies have an obligation to address these concerns.
- Once people have lost faith in the system that is supposed to protect and provide for them, they become more susceptible to fears. It is these societal and economic fears that fuel the fire that leads to populist actions.
- This is where the crisis in trust can have serious consequences. The list of 10 countries in red combine for an above-average systemic lack of faith and multiple above-average levels of fear. Of these countries, it’s a who’s who of recent populist actions. Brexit in the UK Election of Trump in the US Overthrow of the Italian government’s reform package France’s right-wing nationalist presidential candidate Marine Le Pen Columbia opposing a peace agreement to end 50 years of war b/w gov’t and FARC Populist leader Alvaro Uribe argued deal was too lenient on rebels and insisted tougher agreement was possible Mexico’s populist presidential candidate Andres Obrador, the “leftist maverick,” uses messages that resonate with the underprivileged and angry These changes (or coming changes) in government– all of these shifts in power occurred in countries that had a higher-than-average belief that the system is broken, as well as multiple societal and economic fears.
- Here’s a case in point. We conducted a supplementary flash poll in the U.S. in the weeks after the Nov. 8 Presidential Election. As you can see, among respondents who voted for Clinton, about 1 in 3 were both fearful and also believe the system is broken. Another 11% were fearful, but did not necessarily believe the system is failing – a total of 45% who are fearful. Compare that to people who voted for Trump, and you can see that a far higher percentage of Trump voters - 67% - are fearful.
- This slide isn’t surprising. Vote leave had relentless focus on core messages – deliberately choosing heavily contested “facts” so public would be invited to fight them on it The combination of populists Boris and Farage gave two-pronged approach, bringing both traditional Labour/Tory voters together The reason the polls were so consistently wrong throughout the campaign was that they failed to factor in the so called “disengaged middle” in our segmentation i.e. the people who traditionally don’t vote. This time 2.8 million of them did, despite not having voted in Gen Election 2015 (and many never before). It was the once in a lifetime opportunity to kick the establishment and boy did they
- We measured a series of societal and economic concerns commonly associated with populist movements and found broad agreement that these concerns are true. So, a significant portion of the population found many of these to be so prevalent that we describe them to be not just concerned, but fearful. On a 1-9 scale, Respondents who are “concerned” chose a value of 6-9 on the questions represented in each of these categories Respondents who are “fearful” chose a value of 8-9 on the questions represented in each of these categories Ex. 62% are concerned about globalization. 27% are so concerned that they can be described as fearful.
- So what must financial services companies do?
- For the first time ever, “a person like yourself” is as credible as a technical or academic expert. As we mentioned earlier credibility of CEOs is at an all-time low, with a 12-point decline in the last year. We also saw a 10-point drop for the board of directors and 7-point drop for financial industry analysts. This can be attributed to a number of factors, including: The pervasive distrust of the financial services sector, writ-large Information quoting these sources may have be distributed via traditional media channels Their expertise puts them in the “establishment” camp
- Start with your employees. We have been saying this year after year, and still many companies believe their responsibility to employees is just about providing decent pay and benefits. While these factors are important, they are far from sufficient in today’s society. Let’s be very clear: employees are your greatest assets. As you can see, they are the most trusted spokesperson on every one of the six topics that we measure—including financial earnings, your innovation efforts, and your programs to address societal issues. And arguably, many of them have lost faith or are questioning the system. You have the opportunity to ignite them as advocates for business and to help build their trust in the system by engaging to bring them into the dialogue. According to our 2016 FS trust barometer, financial services ist he most trusted sector among employees working in an industry-related company.
- HOW you engage and communicate must change. In every way, conversational communications are far more effective today than broadcast-style communications. Spontaneous speakers are more believed than those who seem rehearsed, blunt spokespeople are more believed than those who are diplomatic. People believe stories based on personal experiences over those based on data, and they believe what companies say on their social media pages more than they believe what they say in advertising. You have to talk WITH people, not AT them.
- In fact, any information coming from official sources is now distrusted. Today, people are more likely to believe that individuals are giving them the truth over institutions; they are more likely to believe what they hear from reformers vs those who seek to preserve the status quo, and leaked information is more believed than company press statements.
- Here, we asked what types of financial products respondents felt was most in need of innovation or new ideas. The response, overwhelmingly, was weighted toward education financing and support for small businesses. Student loan debt stats $1.28 trillion in total U.S. student loan debt 44.2 million Americans with student loan debt Student loan delinquency has a rate of 11.0%
- This is the Trust/Awareness Gap Between General Population and Informed Publics in various forms of technology. You’ll notice the widest gap in blockchain, the system underpinning bitcoin. The Takeaway: People trust the tech they know the best.
- Here, we asked what was most likely to increase respondent’s trust in automated investment advice? You see that transparency was king here, as a clear explanation of recommendations and costs sat at the top of the list.
- There’s a critical breakdown in the financial services industry in all of these trust behaviors. You see the gap (those numbers in the white circles) is widest in the FS industry when it comes to behaviors such as contributing to the greater good effectively representing the interests of all stakeholders. Leadership Effectively Represents Interests of all Stakeholders yields actions surrounding Solving Customer Pain Points Big problem with banks is that they’re run by bankers. They’re experts at wringing every penny out of every dollar. They’re expert on the margin Only 5-20% of global FS companies have anyone on their board knowledgeable about customer experience and FS marketing. Can’t take culture and innovation to next level. Companies need to focus on solving consumers problems Its more important to understand WHY your customers are asking for innovation – what is the problem that needs solving and why is it a problem? – rather than focusing on the next technology you’re going to acquire to beat your competition Develops Innovations with Positive Impact on My Life and World yields actions surrounding Smart Technology Investment Technological advances in applications (cloud computing/rise of mobile) have created companies that make finance cheaper and more accessible to a new generation of customers. We’re at a point where incumbent FS companies are coming to a cross-roads with their fintech brethren. Companies now must be digitally native, controllable by the push of a button on your smartphone half a world away. Ex. Goldman Sachs has made investments in the payments, big data, blockchain and compliance/regulatory space (all within the last two years) August 2015 – Goldman gives away trading technology to clients through open-source software April 2016 – GS starts GS Bank - “Going from Wall Street to Main Street” October 2016 – GS pushes forward “Marcus,” their new online lending platform targeted to small businesses Contributes to the greater good yields actions surrounding Social Purpose As financial institutions continue to transform how they operate, the need to shape consumer engagement and help push smart public policy becomes even more necessary Protects consumer data yields actions surrounding Data Security & Privacy Financial institutions need to be able to navigate this increasingly complex environment Companies need to be proactive about safeguards they have in place while being fully transparent about the collection, use and protection of corporate and personal data
